Episode 2

Hello again, here is the second part. I appreciate the likes and the follow-ups.

I would like to read your opinions, as they motivate me to continue writing.

I'm looking for a beta reader, since I lost contact with my previous beta.

Enjoy!

Sam leaned against the wall with his face still covered by his hands.

JA: Sam – taking her friend's hands to see her face- what is happening?

S: I don't know what is happening to me, I can't stop thinking about the mission, images flood my thoughts...

JA: About how you fell into Hathor's trap? It wasn't anyone's fault Sam, they couldn't know.

S: I know, it's… it's not just that.

JA: What really happened?

S: Are you asking me as my colleague or as my friend?

JA: You know I ask you as your friend.

S: I still can't understand certain sensations... - her friend's look pushed her to continue - when I woke up the first time I really believed that I was the only one who had survived, then they put that device to remember and when thinking about the colonel's death, The image of when the Jaffa fired at us on the planet Nox flashed before my eyes.

JA: but it's not just that, right?

S: No... the second time I woke up, the colonel was next to me, everything was very confusing, but I immediately understood that it was really him, the touch of his hand on my skin... I quickly recovered, I took the subject's clothes on the floor and we left there, but when we reached the corridor that thing in my head activated again, and to prevent me from screaming in pain, the colonel held me and covered my mouth, and moved us both behind a column, but... I it held it there, it protected me…then when Hathor put the Goa'uld on it, I…I couldn't help but think that I had lost it, but the Tok'ra helped him, then when Hathor was about to kill me the colonel threw it into the empty... he took me in his arms and his look said more than I could understand, full of emotion and... feelings, he hugged me fiercely and pronounced my name...

JA: Oh my God Sam…

S: I know… I can't get the images out of my head, sensations… emotions. – She said again covering her face with both hands.

JA: What do you plan to do?

S: I really don't know… I think I should talk to the general and ask for my transfer to another unit, this may compromise my future decisions.

JA: You know he won't let you do that, plus I think you should talk to the colonel first and clarify the situation.

S: Great! what am i supposed to tell you? Excuse me, Colonel, for having inappropriate thoughts and feelings regarding his person, it all happened after believing that he was losing him forever at the hands of Hathor... for heaven's sake...

JA: You don't need to be sarcastic.

S: I'm sorry, Janet.

JA: Don't worry... I still think you should talk to him, I have a slight suspicion that he's not having as good a time as he seems.

S: why? what do you know?

JA: Daniel, he came to see me the other day, to tell me that he noticed that the colonel has been more irritating than usual, since the mission, and this meeting is for him to relax a bit, but seeing now I think the two need to talk.

S: I wouldn't know where or how to start.

JA: I think you need to be honest and trust yourself, and in their judgment…we'd better go back or they'll worry.

They both left the bathroom and returned to the table, Jack looked at Sam and half closed her eyes, asking her without words if everything was alright, to which she responded with a slight nod of her head and a small smile.

Everyone continued having fun for about an hour, until Daniel's state was not the most favorable.

Teal'c apologized to those present and, taking the archaeologist with him, left.

The rest also ended the night and headed towards the parking lot, Janet greeted her two friends and left, this left them alone.

S: It has been a very pleasant night, I needed the distraction... thank you sir.

J: Whenever you want Carter… - looking at her carefully – are you sure you're okay?

S:-looking at those mesmerizing eyes – actually, sir… I was wondering if he could talk to you?

J: Sure Carter, tell me.

S: I was thinking maybe… if you would like to come to my house for a coffee?

J: ... I ...

S: I'm sorry sir, - lowering his gaze to the floor - it's inappropriate on my part.

J: - placing a finger on her chin to make her look at him - hey, calm down... I'm going with you.
